> 3 dayI got this to avoid using an HDMI cable at events where we needed a portable scoreboard, and with my projector and portable screen this was a no-brainer to put that scoreboard closer to the guests who came to the roller derby bout. Connecting is a no-brainer as the transmitter and receiver are paired at the factory. I do wish my laptop had more old-style USB-A ports to connect this with, but I used an old phone charger to supply the necessary power to the transmitter and I was up and running. The resolution is great (looks crystal clear to me, so likely is the full 4k they claim) and within the distance claimed I had no problems connecting. There is a bit of lag between when I move my mouse and when it moves on the screen, but its nothing I cant work through. I had not expected audio to transmit as well as video, but when I broadcast some videos from my laptop onto my TV the sound was definitely coming from the TV (which means no more HDMI cables on movie nights - YAY!). For what this does, I am blown away by how well it works and how simple it is to use - this is MUCH better than any Chromecast Ive ever used as I get to control what I cast and it doesnt have to be in a web browser.

> 3 dayI dont know about you, but when I saw the picture, I had absolutely no faith this would work well. Just a cable with two connections? How could that work? So, it actually has two cables. One is for output and one is for input (self explanatory.) It is powered by USB. So I used my computer out HDMI and USB (A) for power. Plugged the second cable into my TV about 40 feet away, HDMI in and USB for power. That was it. It worked perfectly. The directions are basically non-existent, but who needs them!? Nothing to this. It does comes with a black HDMI extender, but that is necessary only if you need more cable length so you can reach the HDMI port or the USB port. Nothing special. Overall, works fine in the distance I tried. I am going to try a more complicated use in the next few weeks and will update if there is any change, but I am 100% convinced and a believer. This is way too easy! I hope this review was helpful!

Greater than one weekThis works pretty well, although it did not result in my laptop screen being automatically being mirrored to my monitor. I had to bring up my windows display settings and configure the display setup there. Fortunately I’m familiar with configuring windows. The documentation included with HDMI transmitters is sparse, so those unfamiliar with windows configuration may struggle. The Amazon product page for the HDMI transmitter states that it will not work IOS devices such as an iPad. This is not true. For an iPad you need an USB C to HDMI converter. For an iPhone a Lightning port to HDMI converter will do the trick. As in MS windows, once you’ve made the connection, you’ll need some additional configuration to get the remote window to look and act like you want it to. Although the receiver and transmitter seem identical, they are different; one is labeled computer and the other TV/Monitor. One disadvantage the HDMI transmitter has when compared to a plain HDMI cable is that the HDMI transmitter and the receiver need access to a USB port to power both the Transmitter and the receiver. I was able to cast my laptop screen to my TV in another part of the house using the HDMI Transmitter/Receiver combo. One thing I noticed is that both the transmitter and receiver got quite hot after a very short time of connecting. I’m not sure what that means for long term reliability. One other thing I noticed, that may or may not be relevant, is when I attempted to look at some other reviews for the HDMI wireless HDMI extender kit, I found most of the reviews were for another product entirely. The bottom line is this may be a useful kit for transmitting from your PC or other device to a display that is some distance away, provided you’re willing to a bit of configuration.

> 3 dayThis is a wireless wonder of a specific kind. When connected to a laptop and to a TV, it worked exactly as described. When I tried connect it to an all-in-one pc and a monitor the connection screen appeared but the mirror mode never came on. Image quality (when it connected) was excellent and the audio quality was equally good. I didnt experience any lagging issues or de-synchronization between audio and video. Others reported that the inputs got warm and I too noted that they were warm to the touch. All told this wireless system works when used exactly as detailed.
